hello I am reading programming from the ground up chapter 4, 40page there is stack figuration which is Parameter #N ... Parameter 2 Parameter 1 Return Address Old %ebp Local Variable 1 Local Variable 2
I have no idea what "Old %ebp" for. if %ebp is used for accessing return address and parameters, then why don't %ebp point just return address rather than "Old %ebp"? is it for future uses? my question is this Q1. what is "Old %ebp" for and what is it? Q2. why %ebp point Old %ebp not just return address? _______________________________________________ Pgubook-readers mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/pgubook-readers
